ABSTRACT Legumes (family Fabaceae) are vital, nutrient‐dense global resources rich in proteins, complex carbohydrates and micronutrients. Although offering agronomic benefits like nitrogen fixation, their dietary utilization is often constrained by anti‐nutritional factors (ANFs) such as phytates, tannins, lectins and oligosaccharides, which reduce ...

Performance of specialist and generalist herbivores feeding on cabbage cultivars is not explained by glucosinolate profiles [PDF]
Plants display a wide range of chemical defences that may differ in effectiveness against generalist and specialist insect herbivores. Host plant-specific secondary chemicals such as glucosinolates (GS) in Brassicaceae typically reduce the performance of

Microbial Mechanisms and Sensory Outcomes of Flavor Development in Fermented Plant‐Based Proteins
Fermentation improves the flavor and consumer appeal of plant‐based proteins by reducing off‐flavors and generating desirable taste and aroma compounds. This review summarizes microbial mechanisms of flavor development, factors influencing sensory quality, and emerging opportunities in precision fermentation, flavoromics, and microbial engineering ...

Glucosinolate biosynthesis from amino acids
Glucosinolates are natural plant products that are derived from aliphatic and aromatic amino acids by certain plants. Glucosinolates may be metabolized to a variety of potentially toxic products via myrosinase-catalysed hydrolysis.

Glucosinolate are one of the vital secondary metabolites in alfalfa (Medicago sativa L.), and primarily present as β-D-glucosinolate derivatives, improving the resistance in response to biotic and abiotic stresses of alfalfa.

Glucosinolates have anti-carcinogenic properties. In the recent decades, the genetics of glucosinolate biosynthesis has been widely studied, however, the expression of specific genes involved in glucosinolate biosynthesis under exogenous phytohormone ...

The NADPH-dependent conversion of amino acids to their aldoximes is an initial step in glucosinolate biosynthesis. A number of microsomal aldoxime-forming monooxygenase activities were detected in leaves from a variety of glucosinolate-containing species,

Wound-induced increases in the glucosinolate content of oilseed rape and their effect on subsequent herbivory by a crucifer specialist [PDF]
Damage to the oilseed rape plant (Brassica napus L.) by the cabbage stem flea beetle, Psylliodes chrysocephala L. (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) induces systemic changes to the glucosinolate profile, most noticeably an increase in the concentration of ...

Cross‐species transcriptomics uncovers shared responses to water deficiency in plants
Abstract Deepening our knowledge of conserved molecular mechanisms governing stress responses in plants is fundamental for identifying new core genes and processes involved in tolerance to adverse environmental conditions. For this purpose, we developed a bioinformatic pipeline to retrieve and integrate stress‐related RNA‐seq transcriptomic data from ...

Characterization of methylsulfinylalkyl glucosinolate specific polyclonal antibodies
Antibodies towards small molecules, like plant specialized metabolites, are valuable tools for developing quantitative and qualitative analytical techniques. Glucosinolates are the specialized metabolites characteristic of the Brassicales order.
